Ginny Wolf
Prayer For The Great Family
Gratitude to Mother Earth, sailing through night and day– and to her soil: rich, rare, and sweet
in our minds
so be it.

Gratitude to Plants, the sun-facing light-changing leaf and fine root-hairs; standing still through wind and rain; their dance is in the flowing spiral grain
in our minds .
so be it.

Gratitude to Air, bearing the soaring Swift and the silent Owl at dawn. Breath of our song clear spirit breeze
in our minds.
so be it.

Gratitude to Wild Beings, our brothers, teaching secrets, freedoms and ways; who share with us their milk; self-complete, brave, and aware
in our minds.
so be it.
Gratitude to Water: clouds, lakes, rivers, glaciers; holding or releasing; streaming through all our bodies salty seas
in our minds .
so be it.

Gratitude to the Sun: blinding pulsing light through trunks of trees, through mists, warming caves where bears and snakes sleep–he who wakes us–
in our minds.
so be it.

Gratitude to the Great Sky who holds billions of stars–and goes yet beyond that– beyond all powers, and thoughts and yet is within us– Grandfather Space. The Mind is his Wife
so be it.
Gary Snyder
